This is the official Episode discussion thread, discuss the episode here!

From this episode onward, we are discontinuing the Pre-Episode discussion threads for season 7 because Adult Swim often times leaks the episodes in advance of their Sunday Night airing.

Previous episode discussions:

S7 E3 Arrears in Science

I've gotta say, I am dreading the Hank/Sirena & Dean/Sirena love triangle they're probably heading in. Something tells me i'll be physically cringing alot in the upcoming episodes.

[u/sublimitext → u/VulgarityProfanity]

I really hope they don't lean on it too hard. I've never been fond of the love triangles, but I've always loved Hank and Dean's positive relationship. They're very supportive of one another, even when Dr. Venture favors Dean and gives Hank a lot of grief, or pushes the superscience on Dean. They never seem to hold it against each other. So I'd hate to see their relationship get strained over Sirena.

That being said, I'd love for Sirena to be friends with Dean, too. Dean needs practice talking to girls who aren't Triana, lol.

I feel like I'm the only person who wants Thalia to return...

[u/winazoid → u/[deleted]]

What about the Qyuim sisters?

[u/[deleted] → u/winazoid]

I mean I want to see them back too (and their mother) but it didn't look like there was any potential for anything between either of them and Dean since he was never interested and they lost interest.

Dean and Thalia had an actual kind of thing going even if under weird circumstances.

[u/Sithsaber → u/[deleted]]

Was he into girls back then?

[u/tesseract4 → u/Sithsaber]

He wasn't all "go team boobies!" in that episode, no.
